Wavevector-dependent optical properties from wavevector-independent proper conductivity tensor
Ronald Starke, Giulio A. H. Schober, René Wirnata +1
We discuss the calculation of the refractive index by means of the ab initio scalar dielectric function and point out its inherent limitations. To overcome these, we start from the…

Why history matters: ab initio rederivation of Fresnel equations confirms microscopic theory of refractive index
R. Starke, G. A. H. Schober
We provide a systematic theoretical, experimental, and historical critique of the standard derivation of Fresnel's equations, which shows in particular that these well-established…
